L'éléphanteau (The Baby Elephant) by Camille Saint-Saëns - String Quartet Cover

Introducing "L'éléphanteau" - my playful twist on Saint-Saëns' "The Elephant" from The Carnival of the Animals.

About This Arrangement:

"L'éléphanteau" is based on Camille Saint-Saëns' Le Carnaval Des Animaux: V. L'Éléphant and is arranged for string quartet by Cheyenne Elwell. In the original piece, Saint-Saëns humorously and pompously portrays an elephant stomping around, with the double bass as the star. Interestingly, this piece parodies Dance des Sylphes, originally intended for high, light-toned instruments like the violin and flute.

In "L'éléphanteau," the viola takes the lead, giving the piece a fresh and charming voice. Think of it as the double bass's little one - the baby elephant! This whimsical arrangement brings a new perspective to a beloved classic, capturing the essence of its playful spirit.

What's Inside:

  • Full string quartet arrangement

  • Individual parts for Violin I, Violin II, Viola, and Cello

  • Available as a Digital PDF
